MACRA! MIPS! APMs! Confused? You won’t be after a Sunday morning session at this year’s annual meeting of the American College of Rheumatology.
Zachary S. Wallace, MD, of Harvard Medical School and Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston, moderates a panel that will answer your questions about the state of the Quality Payment Program (QPP).
The session will review the updates made to the QPP for 2019 and let attendees know what tools are available to help them maximize payments under each of the tracks. The session also will provide an update on the physician-focused alternative payment model (APM) for rheumatoid arthritis that has been developed by the ACR and submitted to the Physician-Focused Payment Model Technical Advisory Committee for review. Read in depth here about the details of the ACR’s physician-focused APM as it was presented at last year’s annual meeting.
And if you don’t like what you hear about these programs, attendees will provide information on how to provide feedback to the agency to let your voice be heard when the QPP comes up for its annual update.
